Ive never replaced drum brakes more than once per vehicle during ownership. Even the ‘93 ranger I had longer than any other vehicle, I put drums on it once (along with areostar spec drums) but the front disc pads were changed out every 2-3 years, put one new set of rotors on it. Had that truck for 14 years, bought it at 60K miles, retired it at 180K. motor was still good (4.0 ohv) but it was on its 2nd transmission and it was getting noisy, didnt like to downshift without double-clutching. pitman shaft seal went out on steering box and frame had major rot behind the right front shock tower. Frame was bent too, had to remove right rear lift block for rear of truck to sit level.
Still was my favorite truck though.
